We have no idea. Blizzard has said nothing about beta yet besides the one thousand keys that will be given, at random, to Blizzcon 2010 attendants. We have 36,393 members, which you could have discovered by taking five seconds to look around the board index.

but i dont think there will only be a thousand people in the beta.. during the starcraft beta, they were giving away keys left, right and center, fb, twitter, i dont know the exact number but there were quiet a few people in the beta... any estimates on the number of beta keys that will be given out as compared to starcraft 2?
I'm not even sure if I'd want to participate in a beta. I want to experience Diablo 3 in it's final, complete, awe-inspiring form.
You're the kind of person we need in the beta, though! Otherwise all the WoW fans will get in instead and give their opinions <_< The Diablo fans need to make sure the game is a true heir to the franchise. That Diablo III lasts just as long as its predecessor!
Trust me, I feel the same way you do, but I need to get my hands on this game as if I'm going to die before the release. Which is entirely possible. As with you. And everyone else. But if you live to release without spoiling it, and playing the complete final version; then you my friend, are my idol. You are someone I cannot become because of this sick addiction that has corrupted me. Damn you Diablo... I love you!
Don't worry, Blizzard has already said that there won't be any "spoilers" in the beta. Unless you count kill demons and getting loot spoilers. but there will be no storyline or anything like that in beta.

Well it will likely start fairly small then hugely ramp up. This is how beta's usually go.
Yep. Plus, though admittedly it's not the same, I'm sure we'll have plenty of live, and recorded D3 content to bask in. Honestly aside from the experience of playing, and as Acid said, being able to give your opinion as a hardcore Diablo fan, everyone who has the patience, and will to keep up with all the news that will be flowing around will know everything about the beta, and its contents as if you would have played the beta yourself.

I think there will be less beta testers than SC2, but there's now way to know how much less. I can't understand why they would only give beta keys to 1000 Blizzcon attendees if they didn't mean for the D3 beta to be smaller.
any bonus keys to be announced on purgatory?
